No stickers today, but a visit to the home ec class

So I got to visit the home ec class today since the teacher is one of my English teachers. I first had some prepartations for a listening test before I could learn the art of apple jam. This is what I walked into.

I don't know if you can see, but all of the students have aprons and scarfs on. Even the boys. They were busy have a contest to see who could peel the apple the fastest with the largest knife they could find. I was worried they were going to cut off their fingers. I did get to "shuffle" the apples (stir)





NO, She was worried that I was going to cut off my fingers in the contest. The kids thought it was great that I was really getting into it. My time wasn't very good, but I secretly was concentrating on not cutting my fingers with the biggest chopping knife. (Yes, she is the teacher and not a student.... we are the same age)




Later I snuck out of cleaning again. I was chatting with some of the girls that were holding toilet paper. I asked if they were taking it to the bathroom to fill it up. Bathroom, they heard birthday. So I rephrased it, restroom, they heard restaurant. I gave up. It was a rhetorical question anyway.
